Information for Saskatchewan Businesses
Please note that the Hospitality Sector Project is a pilot initiative of limited scope and duration.
Eligibility
Saskatchewan businesses must:
- The employer must meet the Service Canada employer criteria for the Pilot Project for Occupations Requiring Lower Levels of Formal Training (NOC C and D) and agree to the program parameters.
- The employer must possess a Service Canada Labour Market Opinion (LMO) Confirmation and meet the conditions such as salary and accommodation.
- The employer must apply for SINP approval by submitting the SINP-500-4 Hospitality Sector Recruitment and Settlement Plan, which outlines their approach to accommodation, settlement and retention for the foreign worker from the time the foreign worker commences employment with the employer. The plan must demonstrate employer support and assistance toward successful integration of the workforce, community and society.
- The employer must demonstrate their on going recruitment efforts have failed to result in the hiring of Canadians.
- The employer must establish what English language ability the foreign worker has prior to commencement of employment. If English ability is basic, the employer must provide English training and facilitate communication between the foreign worker and the rest of the employees.
- Provide the SINP and Service Canada copies of both the mandatory Service Canada employer-employee contract and the offer of permanent employment that will take effect after the initial 12 months. The offer of permanent employment must provide wages and benefits and other terms of employment within industry norms.
See detailed information on applying to Service Canada's Pilot Project for Occupations Requiring Lower Levels of Formal Training (NOC C and D).
When an employer has received approval from Service Canada and the SINP to participate in this program, they will be asked by Service Canada to identify the foreign workers they wish to bring to Saskatchewan.
